Oh? Republicans criticize their own President's regarding the deficit? Can you cite an example other than Rand Paul and the Liberty caucus? Cause I am pretty sure they don't. You do realize I am criticizing Trump, right? Historically, it seems that the party which is not the majority tends to bring up the deficit more often.

Voters are not the Republican party, I think you probably just misinterpreted what I was saying. I am basically saying Republicans are always going on about the deficit, but Trump who is supposedly the leader of the Republican party is blowin that shi'te up like no one has seen before. He is basically the candy man just giving everyone what they want, debt be damned.

Dude you are turning out to be a worse President for the deficit than any Democrat! I heard they were literally shouting poor Rand Paul down when he tried to protest. Well no one ever claimed the Republicans were not as hypocritical as the Democrats, at least they have that in common. smh

Then there's the concept that the "fruit of the poisonous tree" doctrine allows exclusion of specific evidence resulting from violation of a particular defendant's rights. It doesn't require the shutting down of entire investigations. Put another way, the question is whether the defendant can draw a direct line between a violation of his or her rights and a piece of evidence. The courts have rejected a "but for" theory of the doctrine. That is, the question isn't "would the police have done the things they did but for the violation of my rights." "The Court has never held that evidence is 'fruit of the poisonous tree' simply because “it would not have come to light but for the illegal actions of the police.'" So, for instance, even if the police become interested in searching my house because of evidence they seized illegally from me, so long as the warrant application to search my house does not include any of the illegally seized evidence, it's not fruit of the poisonous tree. There's a related concept called attenuation. "Evidence is admissible when the connection between unconstitutional police conduct and the evidence is remote or has been interrupted by some intervening circumstance." The most common example of this is a voluntary statement. Generally, if the police illegally seize evidence, and then come and ask me about it, and I make a voluntary statement, courts consider the connection between the illegal seizure and the statement attenuated by my voluntary act, so that my statement is not suppressed. So, in the case of the Special Counsel, Papadopoulos and Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI during voluntary statements to them. Even if the Special Counsel got to that interview by violating rights, and even if those were Papadopoulos's and Flynn's rights, the voluntary statements would generally be treated as breaking the chain and would be admissible.

Bill, Hillary, and Donald have all done good things, bad things, and need to be judged on their actions (including their words). They can certainly be liars, or have an unrealistic view of how the government should be run, or just be really horrible at their job.
Shame on America for being so blind as to believe that opponents can never speak politely as they each try to move towards their opposite, incompatible goals.
And the result, in the past, has been somewhere in between what each extremist wants. Today, it's extremism or nothing and compromise is seen as the behavior of losers.
Both camps have their extremists, but in the GOP, the extremists are in control of the party. Google 'Joe Strauss Texas House' and see what happens to real conservatives in the GOP these days. As Speaker he refused to let the 'bathroom bill' come to the floor, because he is a reasonable person and the bill was a terrible idea.
